1. A power supply apparatus comprising:
- a power supply unit that outputs first power used for wireless communication or second power used for wireless power supply;
a communication unit that performs a wireless communication by modulating the first power output from the power supply unit; and
a control unit that controls the second power output from the power supply unit after executing authentication processing for wireless power supply with an external apparatus in a case where the power supply apparatus is in a power supply mode,wherein the control unit does not control the second power output from the power supply unit until completion of the authentication processing for the wireless power supply with the external apparatus in the case where the power supply apparatus is in the power supply mode, andwherein the control unit controls the second power output from the power supply unit without executing the authentication processing for the wireless power supply with the external apparatus in a case where the power supply apparatus is in a test mode.

12. A method comprising:
-
causing a power supply unit to output first power used for wireless communication or second power used for wireless power supply; performing a wireless communication by modulating the first power output from the power supply unit; and controlling the second power output from the power supply unit after executing authentication processing for wireless power supply with an external apparatus in a case where the power supply apparatus is in a power supply mode, wherein the control unit does not control the second power output from the power supply unit until completion of the authentication processing for the wireless power supply with the external apparatus in the case where the power supply apparatus is in the power supply mode, and wherein the control unit controls the second power output from the power supply unit without executing the authentication processing for the wireless power supply with the external apparatus in a case where the power supply apparatus is in a test mode.

13. A non-transitory storage medium that stores a program for causing a computer to execute a method, the method comprising:
-
causing a power supply unit to output first power used for wireless communication or second power used for wireless power supply; performing a wireless communication by modulating the first power output from the power supply unit; and controlling the second power output from the power supply unit after executing authentication processing for wireless power supply with an external apparatus in a case where the power supply apparatus is in a power supply mode, wherein the control unit does not control the second power output from the power supply unit until completion of the authentication processing for the wireless power supply with the external apparatus in the case where the power supply apparatus is in the power supply mode, and wherein the control unit controls the second power output from the power supply unit without executing the authentication processing for the wireless power supply with the external apparatus in a case where the power supply apparatus is in a test mode.
